than a dual core, for you to select the single core.

For your home use pc.

you should clarify your question..... in single thread apps? like games? right now? or in future (eg. with next ut being apparently multithread)

edit: In future, wasnt the manufacturing process supposed to be like the cache sizes now? eg, produce cores with 2 or more cores, then if one of them is faulty, sell it as a single core cpu?

also
faster gpu's do much more for gaming performance that faster cpu's

I leave it up to each person and their personal needs. Most will probably need a faster single core CPU for gaming.

Since I don't game that much, I would definetely benefit from dual-core. Photoshop would run 30-50% faster.
